A Canadian man’s violent rampage at Miami International Airport exposed glaring gaps in airport security and weak enforcement. Newly released video shows Cameron McDougall, 28, throwing punches at TSA agents during peak travel season last December. The chaos started when his flight from Panama to Toronto diverted to Miami after he attacked another passenger mid-air.
Shockingly, authorities let McDougall walk free after that first assault instead of locking him up. He returned to the airport the next day, where surveillance footage catches him sucker-punching a random traveler before charging TSA checkpoints. Agents finally tackled him over a luggage cart as he swung wildly at their faces.
This thug should’ve been behind bars after his initial attack on the flight. Instead, soft-on-crime policies allowed him to roam the airport like a ticking time bomb. Law-abiding travelers were put at risk because bureaucrats prioritized political correctness over public safety.
McDougall’s actions highlight the crisis at our borders and airports. While hardworking Americans follow the rules, foreign troublemakers exploit our weakness. He’s now facing federal charges that could land him two years in prison – a slap on the wrist for endangering countless lives.
The brave TSA agents who took his punches deserve medals, not more workplace violence. Meanwhile, Florida’s state prosecutors are piling on additional charges to make an example of this lawless traveler. Conservative leadership is finally holding criminals accountable instead of coddling them.
This incident proves radical “restorative justice” experiments have failed. Real Americans are tired of violent offenders walking free to commit more crimes. McDougall’s attacks spanned two countries and multiple victims – all because authorities refused to do their jobs the first time.
While liberals push open borders and defund the police, conservatives demand secure airports and respect for law enforcement. McDougall’s sentencing hearing tomorrow should send a message: Attack our agents, face maximum consequences.
Enough is enough. It’s time to put America’s safety first by deporting violent foreigners and backing the blue. The Biden administration’s failed leadership created this mess – now Florida conservatives are cleaning it up.
